Expanding the Cultural Imagination Through Photography ICS [3] 1 Impact case study (REF3b) Institution: University of Brighton Unit of Assessment: D34 Art and Design: History, Practice and Theory Title of case study: Expanding the Cultural Imagination through Photography ICS [3] 1. Summary of the impact Our research has harnessed the power of photography to expand the cultural imagination, creating new works and interpretive practices that enrich, illuminate and challenge perceptions of society and the world in which we live. Through exhibition, publication, and public and community engagement, our research has: 1) created cultural legacies for major public (Millennium Dome, Treasury) and commercial (Airbus) projects; 2) provided enhanced cultural experiences to multiple audiences and specific communities in the UK and Europe, provoking reflection on ideas of place and identity, and contributing to processes of cultural memory and reconciliation (Association of Jewish Refugees, Healing Through Remembering) and; 3) expanded photography within the cultural economy, working in partnership (Photoworks, Multistory) to build and sustain audiences for photography within and beyond the region. 2. Underpinning research University of Brighton (UoB) research in photography comprises three interlocking strands: the positioning of photography as a medium of critical artistic significance within the wider cultural economy and public sphere; the development of forms of visual storytelling that shape contemporary narratives of place, and; photography as a mode of enquiry into cultural history and memory. In 2003, in partnership with Photoworks and the University of Sussex, UoB was instrumental in founding the Brighton Photo Biennial to raise the public and professional profile of photography. In parallel, Photoforum (2003), launched by GREEN and LOWRY, provided the intellectual underpinning for developments in practice that fostered a critical debate around the medium’s changing uses and increasing cultural prominence. Through lectures, conferences and theoretical writings, such as Where is the Photograph? (2003) and Stillness and Time [reference 3.3], researchers identified and analysed the significant changes that have taken place in our understanding of photography and its place in contemporary culture. This context has nurtured distinctive bodies of creative research around narratives of place and the documentation of history and heritage. Drawing on his research in visual storytelling, POWER’s The Shipping Forecast [3.1] gave visual form to the familiar place names recited daily on BBC Radio 4’s Shipping Forecast, illuminating a unique element of British popular culture. More recently, Black Country Stories [POWER, 2] has critically developed and extended traditions of working-class documentary photography to provide a contemporary visual interpretation of the Black Country’s urban landscape. In a similar vein, RIBAS’ anthropological study Sanctuary [3.2] animated the peripheral landscapes and life of Barcelona, while COOKE’s detailed studies Re- placing Arcadia (2002) and Riparian [COOKE, 1] revealed the competing forces of nature and culture acting upon and transforming the contemporary landscape. Building on these foundations, further research aimed to secure photographic records for posterity that captured the changing nature, regeneration and transformation of places, and the making of history and heritage. POWER’s Superstructure (2000) recorded the construction of London’s Millennium Dome, and subsequent commissions documented major rebuilding and construction projects: Treasury (2002); Saadiyat (2009/10); Kings Cross (2014), and; the Airbus A380, the largest plane ever built (2006). These government and corporate projects informed his contribution to Magnum’s Eurovisions (2005) and his work documenting the cultural landscape of contemporary Poland in Sound of Two Songs [3.5], which offers a nuanced interpretation of place and identity. A third strand brings photography together with recent research on material culture and cultural memory, deploying methods from museum and archival studies (PURBRICK’s ‘The Architecture of Containment’ [3.4] in Donovan Wylie’s The Maze, 2004). This approach has informed the development of visual storytelling as a means of representing cultural history and heritage. Deliberately oscillating between photographic and archival research (eg War, Memory and Page 1 Impact case study (REF3b) Photographic Traces in the Twentieth Century [3.6], WINCKLER has developed photography as a medium through which collective memories can be reconstructed and given a renewed cultural presence. RIBAS and PURBRICK’s current collaborative study Traces of Nitrate (AHRC £264,358) combines these same research strands to visualise the land, cityscapes and material histories of nitrate mining in Britain and Chile, exploring the legacies of British colonial and military actions and how material culture holds the past in the present. Key researchers: David Green: Senior Lecturer (Jan 1992–Nov 2013). Joanna Lowry: Principal Lecturer (Jan 2009–to date). Mark Power: Senior Lecturer (Sep 1992–June 2003), Professor of Photography (June 2003–to date). Louise Purbrick: Lecturer (Apr 1999–Aug 2000), Senior Lecturer (Sept 2000–Dec 2008), Principal Lecturer (Jan 2009 – to date). Xavier Ribas: Senior Lecturer (Sept 2000–to date).

Details of the impact Our research has led to: the creation of new cultural capital enriching the public imagination; deepening of cultural experiences and insights for audiences and specific communities, and; the expansion of photography within the creative economy to build and sustain audiences. Creating cultural capital: The creation of new cultural capital has given increased visibility in the public imagination to major public and commercial endeavours (e.g. Treasury, Airbus) as well as to less explored aspects of the cultural heritage of the UK and Europe. Through a sustained programme of commissions and exhibitions, our research has enabled public bodies, cultural institutions, galleries and corporate sponsors to engage new audiences and communities in innovative ways. Their work has enabled audiences to visualise unique features of national and popular cultures, changing urban landscapes, and heritage. Making a significant contribution to cultural life, our researchers have held nine international solo exhibitions and featured work in over 40 other shows since 2008, including at major venues such as the Guggenheim Bilbao, Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, George Eastman House, Somerset House and the Art Science Museum in Singapore. POWER and RIBAS have attracted major features in the international press (the Guardian, Gazeta Wyborcza, Rochester City News), magazines (Outlook, China’s leading lifestyle magazine) and professional photographic journals (Royal Photographic Society, PhotoEye and Fotografia) (sources 5.1 and 5.2). Page 2 Impact case study (REF3b) In 2009 the Guardian newspaper identified a selection of images from POWER’s The Shipping Forecast (1997) for their feature, 100 years of great press photographs (5.2), thereby attesting to the capacity of such images to endure in the public imagination and underscoring his contribution to the increased recognition of documentary photography within the art market (5.3). The Photoeye nomination of Sound of Two Songs (POWER, 2010) and Concrete Geographies (RIBAS, 2012) as being among the best photographic publications of the year is a measure of the influence of our research on contemporary photographic practice and its contribution to shaping the market for high-value photographic books, which has drawn increasing cultural attention in the past decade (5.4). The longevity of our researchers’ contributions to cultural life has been secured by the inclusion of works in major public collections (British Council, English Heritage, Government Art Collection) during the period (5.5). Enriching and deepening audience experience and engagement: There is both qualitative and quantitative evidence that our exhibitions have captured the imagination of public and professional audiences alike. The former is expressed in audience responses such as the following on POWER’s

    Exhibition History 1971 - present The following list is a record of exhibitions held at The Photographers' Gallery, London since its opening in January 1971. Exhibitions and a selection of other activities and events organised by the Print Sales, the Education Department and the Digital Programme (including the Media Wall) are listed. Please note: The archive collection is continually being catalogued and new material is discovered. This list will be updated intermittently to reflect this. It is for this reason that some exhibitions have more detail than others. Exhibitions listed as archival may contain uncredited worKs and artists. With this in mind, please be aware of the following when using the list for research purposes: – Foyer exhibitions were usually mounted last minute, and therefore there are no complete records of these brief exhibitions, where records exist they have been included in this list – The Bookstall Gallery was a small space in the bookshop, it went on to become the Print Room, and is also listed as Print Room Sales – VideoSpin was a brief series of worKs by video artists exhibited in the bookshop beginning in December 1999 – Gaps in exhibitions coincide with building and development worKs – Where beginning and end dates are the same, the exact dates have yet to be confirmed as the information is not currently available For complete accuracy, information should be verified against primary source documents in the Archive at the Photographers' Gallery.

  • Impact Case Study Uoa 34: Art and Design Photography and the Representation of Conflict (Professor Paul Seawright and Donovan W
    Impact Case Study UoA 34: Art and Design Photography and the representation of conflict (Professor Paul Seawright and Donovan Wylie) Wylie and Seawright’s research extends longstanding commitment to researching art and conflict at Ulster. Their photographic work has enhanced public and national understanding of conflicts in which the United Kingdom has been directly involved. Much of this research extends conventional visual responses to conflict by mainstream media agencies and publications, expanding the field by enhancing the long-term documentation of conflict through the production of artworks. Using contemporary art-based contextual and methodological strategies of production and dissemination, the research has provided new material through which contemporary and historic conflict can be commemorated and interpreted in international museum collections, publications and exhibitions. Ulster is recognized world leader in research of the representation of conflict. The Research Institute built upon persistent research in this area by establishing an Art, Conflict and Society research cluster following Seawright’s appointment as Professor of Photography in January 2007. Donovan Wylie joined this research cluster in 2009, he is a member of the international photographic collective, Magnum Photos This case study specifically concerns impact arising from photographic art and the representation of conflict. When he was first a lecturer at Ulster, Seawright’s monograph Inside Information accompanied a major one person exhibition at the Photographers
